TRAFFIC SYSTEM CO-OPERATION
What is the matter with the sitiudents of this school? What is the cause
of the great lacic of co-operation
with
the m.ost essential club of iour school
which is the Traffic Club, under .. thU'rleadership of Martin Creesy.
When matters come to such a crisis
that a club under capable hands must be
disbanded, it is time for the students
bo 'Hvake up," It is now time for the
Ijupils of this school to show some respect and courtesy to the efforts of others.
We have reasons to believe that the
laws of the Traffic Club were made for
our benefit. They were meant to prevent
an untidy looking- school and to stop the
daily disturbance of candy eating
and
glim chevying during class periods.

Through lack of consideration for

the efforts of the members of th^s club
and through lack of co-operation with''
